Hey all. I've played this a few times on another board and I figured I'd give it a shot here, let people screw around with story ideas and such. The rules are copy/pasted as follows:
"What happens is this: I will give you a one-sentence description of a world, then add in the first Historical Period and the last Historical Period for that world.
For example (and this will be different from the world we actually use in game play):
World Description: "The Rise and Fall of the Dragon Kings"
Beginning Period: The Birth of the First Dragon
Ending Period: The Destruction of the Royal Palace
No other details are given. Are the Dragon Kings actual dragons, or are they men controlling the dragons? That has yet to be determined.
The next player can then either add another Historical Period OR add an Event within a period.
So after he plays, our Universe might look like this:
PERIOD: The Birth of the First Dragon
- EVENT: The God of Fire decides to create a minion to battle his arch enemy--The God of Water
PERIOD: The Destruction of the Royal Palace
Once again, no further details are given. The next player can then introduce another Event within a Period or a brand new Period. So he does this:
PERIOD: The Birth of the First Dragon
- EVENT: The God of Fire decides to create a dragon minion to battle his arch enemy--The God of Water
PERIOD: The Rise of the Centaur Tyrant
PERIOD: The Destruction of the Royal Palace
The next player then adds another Event:
PERIOD: The Birth of the First Dragon
- EVENT: The God of Fire decides to create a dragon minion to battle his arch enemy--The God of Water
- EVENT: Mallard--the first Human Hero--tames the dragon and gains control over it.
PERIOD: The Rise of the Centaur Tyrant
PERIOD: The Destruction of the Royal Palace
Play continues as each player adds an Event or a Period, with complete control over what happens. A new Period can be placed chronologically anywhere the player chooses within the Beginning and End Periods. New Events can also be placed before or after existing Events. You can't cancel out what someone else has played, but you can build on it or take it in unexpected directions by adding your own Periods or Events.
Play continues until we get sick of the game or until we've built a world with a complete and appropriately detailed history."
I'm looking for a total of 4-6 players (plus myself). Post here if you wanna join in the fun!
